THE VAN PARIS SOCIETY & GLAMOUR PARTY

Text Laurence Romance

" Chloé, organizer of the burlesque Parisian parties “ VAN PARIS GLAMOUR PARTY”, is an accomplished show producer. She brings together on stage renowned burlesque artists and THE VAN PARIS SOCIETY : girls she discovered on Facebook , for whom she created acts, taking care of the costumes as well as the choreography. She also chooses the music they perform to and, once the show is over, she becomes a DJ, playing standards from musical and by big bands."

"There’s more. Far from merely celebrating Hollywood’s Golden Age and the naughty state of mind of the pre-war cabarets, this iconoclastic enchantress gleefully blends 1950’s rock and roll, new-wave, electro and the very best that pop music has given us: Brenda Lee and Cristina, Little Richard and Goldfrapp, James Chance and Harry Nilsson, Vive La Fête, Blondie, Prince, Wanda Jackson… A “music selector” rather than a mere Selector, Chloé Van Paris offers sets that first appeal to the listener thanks to their eclectic boldness, which is certainly not a product of chance; indeed thanks to her vast knowledge of musicals, she knows that music was always meant to tell stories and is second to none when it comes to signaling subtle echoes between songs, which question and answer each other beyond the barriers of time. As for those who might think that she dwells in the past, they are the retrogrades who haven’t had a chance to see her in a club, focused on her single aim : “To bring about euphoria and keep it alive.”

Chloé’s relation to music is peculiar, both intuition-based and fearless. Her creed?

“ I never considered there was a hierarchy among genres. Emotion comes first.”"
